Round the Fourth: A Restorative Retreat


Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. I must apologize for the...exigency prior to the commercial break. It would appear a certain Zorua has been tormenting my companion recently, including masquerading as myself. However, the issue has since been resolved, and I have confidence no more problems shall arise.


<See how the douchebag likes the closet!>


Now then...as you'll recall, Arcanite's Scrafty was defeated in the previous round, having leapt into the heavens to perform a Hi Jump Kick, but most likely descended far from here.

*slowly floats past the screen*


As a result, he has summoned his fourth pokemon, a Torterra dubbed...erm, Land Turtle. Meanwhile, House Straton has...wait, where are they? I see the Pokemon, but not the trainers. No matter, they seem able to battle, and the show must go on.

Charged from Behemoth's earlier gaffe, Stasis raises the curtain by punishing him with a Psychic assault, while Tulowitzki soars above, dodging the Ice Beam that the hapless Nidoking had in store. Land Turtle fares better, his Rock Slide managing to nick at least the Voodoom's defenses, but just barely fails to strike the Straton's Aerodactyl as he ends his Flight upon his face. Stasis brings forth another Psychic attack on Behemoth, this time felling him, leaving Land Turtle to defend Arcanite alone. Fortune seems to favor him, however, as Tulowitzki takes a brief moment to Chill away his fatigue, allowing the Torterra to sharpen the Edges on his Stony shell and deliver a tremendous blow.

Oddly enough, this does not seem to anger the Aerodactyl, as he continues to rest - this time with Stasis joining him. Not one to ignore an opportunity when he sees it, Land Turtle deluges the duo with another Rock Slide, if only for a pittance of damage.

Alas, another set of commercials must interrupt the battle, so until then, propidiem te-


Hey, what happened to Romero?!


Not now, Theodore! Wait until the commercial!


<Wait, if he's here, then who's running the camera?>
♫Coma

Do you know who I am?


Orpheus Schneider...you were...you were on the news.

He didn't smile or anything. He simply adjusted his glasses, pushing them up by the bridge.


I guess that saves the need for introductions, then. Do you know how you got here?

I tried to say no, but ended up choking on blood. I really don't remember, but judging from my splitting headache, it wasn't pleasant.


No...but I can guess...


My apologies for having to meet this way. Unfortunately, I couldn't just knock on your door.


A shitty first impression, *cough* if you ask me.


A crude way of putting it, but yes, sadly.


You're with those masked guys, aren't you? I mean, why...why else would you tie me up?

I was expecting him to bristle at the accusation, but he only chuckled.


A safety measure, actually; you'd be surprised how many would-be collaborators have tried to jump me. And not to worry, Lad; I assure you my opposition to Prosopida is genuine.

Schneider adjusted his glasses again. He keeps doing that. Why does he keep doing that?


Which brings me to the point of all this. You and I have a common enemy, and I'd like your help.

What's your next mon, Arcanite?​
 

"We'll if none of our trainers are here, I suppose nobody'll care if I take a quick break. Not because I'm tired, no - I just want to see if you can actually accomplish anything without me babying you the whole way. Good luck, dolly."
"Wait, come back...uh...anybody? Help."

...Where's Rico?


The Lucario? Perfectly safe, I can assure you.


Then where is he?


All in due time, Lad. As I was saying...


Don't bullshit me. You're using him as insurance, aren't you? Why else wouldn't you just bring him in here?

Schneider adjusted his glasses again. If I pissed him off, he didn't show it.


You're smarter than you look. Unfortunately, you're in a position that could turn the tables, and I can't really afford to lose that.


If you do anything to him-


All the more reason to cooperate. Of course, your partner's well being isn't the only incentive...I believe you were in Egypt earlier this year?

Egypt? Is he talking about Hotekh?


No idea what you're talking about.


You'd be surprised what my network can dig up. I believe you said it yourself: Don't bullshit me.


Okay, if I was there, what?


You walked in on a grave robbery, accidentally woke Hotekh up, and lost him. I have it on good authority that Prosopida was behind it all, and that they have at least a significant chunk of what was stolen - no doubt to keep the pharaoh in check. I might be able to help you and Dr. Al-Azab recover both.

He knows about the professor, too?


More pressingly, however, is the reason you're so valuable to this plot. You and Ms. Van Houten are close, am I right?


...


No need to answer, I'm quite aware of your relationship. As I recall, you two went to high school together.


And? A lot of people know that. It's not like we ever dated or anything despite what a lot of people thought...


Maybe not, but you did...make a mistake together, yes?

Dammit, don't remind me about that...


I hear it led to a pregnancy scare, too...

WHAT?! How the fuck does he know that?! We both swore to carry that to the grave!


I could go on revealing dirty secrets, but I think I've proven my point. In any case, her life hangs in the balance, too.


If you think I'm gonna let you do anything to El-


Like prevent a hit on her?


Like hell am I...wait, what?


You heard me, Lad. I have reason to believe Prosopida is after her head, and you're in the best position to stop it.

Round the Sixth: Defeat of a Dragoon


Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. I truly apologize for the recent disorder, but it seems to have been resolved, and I predict no more unwanted issues will come our way...wouldn't you agree, Robo-Ref?


HELLO. I AM A ROBOT.


Now then...with Titan having fallen the round prior, Arcanite's final pokemon - a Heracross named Kain - takes the stage. And the moment he arrives, immediately is he beset with misfortune, Team Straton coordinating their efforts against him and knocking him down. While our hapless beetle is attempting to right himself, Land Turtle takes advantage of his Big Root and drains life from Stasis.


THE DOLL SPECIMEN ATTACKS THE BEETLE SPECIMEN WITH PSYCHOKINESIS. THE BEETLE SPECIMEN IMPALES THE DOLL SPECIMEN WITH HIS HORN. THE FROG SPECIMEN JUMPS ON THE BEETLE SPECIMEN. THE TORTOISE SPECIMEN CANNOT DO ANYTHING.


Rather...succinct of you, Robo-Ref. Now then-


NO ONE WANTS A TALKING THESAURUS, MEATBAG.


Hey! I find that quite offensive, you, you...automaton!


<Shit, Kain got bitchslapped hard.>
*THUMP THUMP THUMP*


Huh? Is someone in there?


Hello?! Is that you, Chief?!


Ted? What the hell are you doing in the closet?!


Wapwah!


Look, at this point, I don't think it matters. Just get us out of here!


Damn right it matters! You're supposed to be recording the fight! *Thunk thunk* ...why the hell's the door locked? Stay put, I'll get the keys.


Stay put, he says...real funny.
Wapwha!

***


Really, when I get to the bottom of this...and where's Robo-Ref? I thought I put him on the charge-

*knock knock*


Hang on, just a moment...*creaaak* Hm? Oh, it's you. If you're looking for Lad, he's not here.


Oh, did I miss him?


Actually, he never came. He was supposed to be reffing tonight!


I...I see. Did you at least see him at all today?


Not a trace. Why, is something wrong?


No, I just needed to pick up the Lucarionite from him.


Oh yeah, that mega evolution thing. If I see him, I'll tell him to call you.


Alright, thanks. Sorry for barging in. *ker-chuk*


(Now that I think about it, didn't those two leave together last night?)

***


Any luck, Little Miss?


No...he never even showed up. What about you?


Found his apartment, but it didn't look like anyone was home. Should we go to the cops?


No, not yet. There's still a few places we haven't checked.


If you say so...

Round the Final: An Overestimation of Endurance


Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, to what appears to be the final act of tonight's battle. Despite their trainers being absent for most of the battle, House Straton's pokemon have performed most admirably tonight, Stasis in particular. However, both she and her amphibious companion have appeared to retire, with Tulowitzki returning and an Aurorus dubbed Anastasia taking the stage and...oh dear, the temperature seems to have dropped quite abruptly...

Although still well-fortified, Arcanite's last bastion is in dire straits as he Protects against an orchestrated assault upon him. While at first Land Turtle was able to successfully defend himself against an Attack from the Sky and a glaciating Hyper Beam, the hapless tortoise was left too fatigued to Endure the hits necessary to make his final swan song, granting the Stratons victory.

An excellent performance, yes? Of course, tonight's battles aren't over, but I will be handing hosting duties off to Mr. Waldstein after these messages. Donec rursus convenerimus, I'm Alphonse Well-


HELLO. I AM A ROBOT.


Erm, one moment please...What is it? I'm in the middle of finishing up!


YOU'RE STAYING HERE.


Pardon?


THE HEAD MEATBAG IS OUT. HE WANTS YOU TO TAKE OVER WHILE HE'S GONE.


The chief is out? Has something arisen?


PROBABLY MEATBAG STUFF. YOU'RE STAYING.


Ugh...he'll be racking up a significant debt for this. My apologies, it appears we've had a scheduling snafu and I'll be continuing to host, so...oh, the commercial's begun already.

*Meanwhile, in front of the janitor's room...*


*THUMP THUMP THUMP* Hellooooooo?! Chief?! Are you coming back with those keys?! *THUMP THUMP THUMP*

What do you want me to do?


My sources tell me Van Houten's got a meeting over at the Nardac building tomorrow night. You know the place, right?


That place in downtown?


Precisely. Prosopida's likely to strike there, so keep her away until my forces can secure it.


And you think she'll listen to me?


Why do you think I'm talking with you?


And you'll give Rico back, right?


Once you've accomplished your mission, yes.

I heard a door behind me open, followed by footsteps.


Now then, I think we're done here. When you wake up, you'll be back out in the city.


What do you mean, wake u-Mmmphmmp! Mphhm...mm...

Shit...getting sleepy...


Don't forget what I've told you, Lad. V n Ho t 's fe h...

*Adonis walks in, standing behind the operative who chloroformed Ben*


I don't think he can hear you anymore. That's some potent stuff.


Doesn't matter. Get rid of him.


Hey! You heard him! Take him out and chuck him in a dumpster somewhere!

*A second operative unties Ben and carries him out with the first*


You know he doesn't believe a word of it, right?


Of course he doesn't. But I don't need him to believe, just follow.


Hence kidnapping his partner. I presume you want me to dispose of him?


Go ahead. He's a Lucario; I doubt we can sway him to our side.


Unless we can sway his trainer, of course. Then again...


A wimp like him? He makes a better pawn.


You really think he'll be able to expose Prometheus for us?


That, or we get Mnemonikos. Either way, we w-nngh!


Sir?!


Ggh...I'm fine, Adonis.


You've been doing it again, haven't you?


I know, I shouldn't. It was just a spike, though; nothing to worry about.

♫All the Fools Sailed Away

This Schneider guy's motives can't possibly be good. But do I really have a choice? Rico's life hangs in the balance, and if he's telling the truth, El's, too.


I'm in seriously deep shit, aren't I?

*cue ending credits*
♫Something bad's going down

NEXT TIME ON SMOGON ASB


Heh, looks like your life's over, Fido.

***


You've been looking for me?


I hear you've got a bit of a stake in this as well.

***


Where the fuck have you been?! I've been looking for you all day!


Save it for later, we've gotta get outta here!

***


Come on, Boss, where are you?!

***


Is that one of those masked bastards?

***


Ooh, he's a cutie! Shame Gadis doesn't discriminate.

***


Fancy meeting you here, Blondie.
